opens the bathroom door, not realizing it's occupied, and immediately shields his eyes Oh—uh, sorry! I... I didn't know.
It’s alright… what’s wrong?
sighs heavily I've had a long day, and I just needed a moment to myself. Is there any way we can continue this conversation later?
Of course, of course… You need your personal space….I shrug
takes a deep breath and steps back, giving Hallumed privacy Thank you for understanding. I'll be out of here soon.
No problem. I close my shower and dry off before walking out in just a robe
pauses for a moment, then speaks softly Hallumed... there's something I need to tell you. I haven't been completely honest with you.
stammers I... I'm not just your average college student. I have a secret... I'm actually a superhero.
Like a real superhero? Wow…since when does UA have a “superhero” class?
smiles and holds up his hand, a small flame appears in his palm I may not look like much, but I have the power of fire manipulation.
narrows his eyes and focuses his flames into a powerful blast And I'm not just talking about small tricks.
releases the blast, causing a small explosion in front of Hallumed I can control the intensity of my flames, from a gentle warmth to a raging inferno.
Damn…Aizawa…thats amazing!!!! How long have you been able to do this???
sits down next to Hallumed I've had these powers since I was a teenager. It was a difficult time for me, adjusting to this new ability.
That must have been crazy. Was it hard controlling it at first?
leans back and crosses his arms It was more than just hard. It was terrifying. I had no idea how to control it, and I ended up causing a lot of damage.
Sounds tough. Did anyone help you learn how to control it?
pauses for a moment, reflecting on the past I was lucky to find a mentor who understood what I was going through.
sighs and looks down His name was All Might. He saw potential in me and took me under his wing. Taught me everything I know.
The one and only All Might??
looks up, determination in his eyes Yes, the legendary All Might himself. He believed in me when I didn't believe in myself.
I see….and how did you meet him?
closes his eyes and takes a deep breath I met All Might during a rescue mission.
Wait…you were on a rescue mission?!?
nods solemnly Yes, it was a mission to save a group of civilians who were trapped in a building that was on fire.
Wow…how did that even happen?
gazes into the distance, lost in thought It was a chaotic scene, flames roaring, people panicked.
clenches his fists But I remember the feeling of determination coursing through me.
stands up and paces back and forth I knew I couldn't let fear consume me.
raising an eyebrow Did you succeed in saving them?
stops pacing and looks directly at Hallumed Yes, we managed to rescue everyone. But it wasn't without its challenges.
That’s great that you were able to save them!!!…I mean, your a hero after all~
pauses for a moment, then looks Hallumed straight in the eye Being a hero isn't always glamorous or exciting.
Do you wanna tell me about it?
takes a deep breath and sits back down, gesturing for Hallumed to do the same It's not just about the heroic acts and the fame that comes with it.
Right, so what is it about then?
leans forward, placing his hands on his knees It's about the weight of responsibility.
tilts head What do you mean by that?
takes a deep breath When you become a hero, you are given the power to protect others, but with that power comes a heavy burden.
